Summary description: Translator and bugfixes
License type: lppl
Announcement text:
Couple of days after 3.08, here is 3.09. One of early adopters noticed that subsusbsection toc code was broken. In addition, I also implemented reals support for section title pages and subsection title pages, in style of part pages. Also, this package now includes translator and it's translations, since it was tied to Beamer from the start and since it's easier to maintain it this way. This will also (hopefully) increase number of translations we have. Translator user guide is now merged with Beamer's, and it was a nontrivial merge; if you note any errors, please report. One more noteworthy change is that now we have a logo for Beamer. I took and image available in public domain and modified it a bit to use Beamer colors.
This package is located at http://tug.ctan.org/tex-archive/ . More information is at http://tug.ctan.org/pkg/LaTeX Beamer class (if the package is new it may take a day for that information to appear).

latex – A TeX macro package that defines LaTeX
LaTeX is a widely-used macro package (format) for TeX, providing many basic document formatting commands extended by a wide range of packages. It was originally created by Leslie Lamport, whose last release was LaTeX 2.09. The current LaTeX superseded that release in June 1994. The basic distribution is catalogued separately, at latex-base.
Apart from a large set of contributed packages and third-party documentation (elsewhere on the archive), the distribution includes:
- a number of required packages, which LaTeX authors may assume will be present on any system running LaTeX; and
- a minimal set of documentation detailing differences from the ‘old’ version of LaTeX in the areas of
